ABRASILVER ANNOUNCES FILING OF NI 43-101 TECHNICAL REPORT FOR INCREASED MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE AT DIABLILLOS
Abrasilver Resource Corp. has filed on SEDAR+ a National Instrument 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101) compliant, independent technical report on its wholly owned Diablillos project in Salta province, Argentina.
Highlights of the updated report include:
-
Significant growth:
Measured indicated mineral resources at Diablillos now contain an estimated
258 million ounces silver equivalent, and the inferred mineral resource contains an additional
eight Moz AgEq.
-
Four conceptual open pits:
The addition of the new high-grade JAC deposit, which will ultimately join the Oculto deposit, has further
enhanced the overall quality of the mineral resource, and is expected to boost flexibility and the economic strength of the project in the upcoming prefeasibility study.
-
Extensive exploration upside potential:
Future drilling will focus on exploration targets, which include JAC North, Alpaca and the Oculto-Fantasma trends, each of which has the potential to continue to increase and add additional silver/gold mineralization.
The report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource Estimate Diablillos Project" is dated Jan. 10, 2024, has an effective date of Nov. 22, 2023, and supports the disclosure made by Abrasilver in its Nov. 27, 2023, press release titled "AbraSilver Reports 258 Million Silver-Equivalent Ounces Contained in M&I Categories, Substantially Increasing the Diablillos Mineral Resource Estimate." There are no material differences in the report from the results disclosed in the company's Nov. 27, 2023, press release. The report can be found under the company's profile on SEDAR+ and on the company's website.
